China's ambitious new particle accelerator was meant to pick up where the Large Hadron Collider left off, but the project was ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator has reshaped the global race ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom smasher’s eventual final retirement is also something that top scientists are now ...

We're getting closer to full power: For the first time in two years, after significant upgrades and repairs, the Large Hadron Collider is now delivering proton-to-proton collisions for four of CERN's ...

To unlock the secrets of dark matter, scientists could turn to supermassive black holes and their ability to act as natural superpowered particle colliders. That's according to new research that found ...

A snapshot of a computer simulation showing how energy density changes over time in the collision of a lead ion with a photon emitted by another lead ion. The world’s largest and most powerful ...

Black holes are powerful engines of pure gravity, capable of pulling on objects so intensely that they can't possibly escape. When those objects near the event horizon, they're accelerated to ...

The long and complicated journey to detect the Higgs boson, which started with one small step about 25 years ago, might finally have reached its goal. This was reported by LHC particle accelerator ...

(Nanowerk News) The world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator may be producing the world’s tiniest droplets of liquid, right under scientists’ noses. Researchers supported by the ...
